There have been several rumors so far this offseason regarding the New York Islanders when it comes to trades. It has been rumored that the Islanders are shopping around defensemen Nick Leddy and Thomas Hickey.
Although many fans (like myself) would love the Isles to ship Nick Leddy and then some for a top-six forward, it is very unlikely that Islanders general manager Lou Lamoriello will rush a trade or accept anything less than he thinks he should get in return for Leddy.
On the contrary, some other GMs are not like this and like to get trades done quick, whether it means getting a good return for the player(s) or not.
